1.LINE OF CREDIT. You may borrow, repay, and reborrow from us to and including the Termination Date, as hereinafter defined in Section 9.1 hereof, unless sooner notified of the termination of this Agreement, such amounts (the “Advances”) as you may from time to time request and as we have available for borrowing. The line of credit is hereby established in an amount as provided for in Exhibit D for the benefit of the Borrower (“Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit may be revised from time to time through a properly executed amendment to Exhibit D.

2.INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE ADVANCES. You shall authorize us to make Advances to you based on instructions from an Authorized Officer or Delegated Employee, as hereinafter defined, indicating the date and the amount of the Advance. “Authorized Officer or Delegated Employee” shall mean any officer or employee set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. The Lender agrees to make Advances to the Borrower up to a loan balance as provided for in Exhibit D.

3.NOTE EVIDENCING ADVANCES. The Advances shall be evidenced by your Demand Short-Term Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the form set forth as Exhibit B attached hereto, and shall be payable on demand. We shall record all Advances made pursuant to this Agreement and all payments of principal within our books and records or, at our option, on the schedule attached to the Note, which books and records (or schedules) shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof

4.INTEREST.

4.1Interest.  The unpaid principal of the Note shall bear interest on a monthly basis (“Interest Period”) at a rate that is the average for the month on Al/P1 Rated 30-day Commercial Paper (“Interest Rate”). The Interest Rate and Interest Period are defined by Exhibit C attached hereto.

4.2Method of Calculating Interest Rate and Fees. The Interest Rate and any fees shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of 365 days and paid for actual days elapsed.

5.PREPAYMENTS.

5.1Optional Prepayments. All Advances made pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by you upon our demand, but they may at your election be repaid, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to demand upon prepayment instructions from an Authorized Officer or Delegated Employee. Upon receipt of such instructions, repayment will be effected by crediting your account for the principal amount of such payment.

5.2Mandatory Prepayments. In the event we reduce the amount of the Line of Credit and the unpaid principal balance of the Note exceeds the then reduced amount of the Line of Credit, you will, upon notice or demand from us, forthwith prepay the unpaid principal balance of the Note by an amount which is equal to such excess.

6.MAKING OF PAYMENTS. All payments of principal or interest on the Note shall be made in immediately available funds.

7.ELECTION TO MAKE THE ADVANCES. You hereby acknowledge that this Agreement and the Note are entered into by you on a demand basis and accordingly, that the entire unpaid principal amount of all liabilities, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees shall be due and payable upon our demand therefore made in our sole and absolute discretion. Your compliance with this Agreement shall not impair our right to make such demand or obligate us to make any Advances, which Advances shall be made in our sole and absolute discretion.
